HIPAA - sm Posted: Dec 30th, 2017 - 12:33 pm In Reply to: I will never understand how they get around HIPAA - GrammieM
My understanding is they are held to HIPAA standards by working for a US corporation or a corporation somehow partly based out of the US like Nuance and MModal. They go through HIPAA training. Fine, but how is it enforced outside the US? If a breach were to happen, is the company penalized in place of the employee? Personally I hate the idea of having this type of record going overseas. Not to mention, the IRS now has offices in India too! I cannot understand how they are willing to take the risk. Corporate greed is one thing, but at what cost to human beings?
